Beauty in purple (Patreon)

I really loved Brook’s purple gown. Combined with her beautiful features, a tea cup  in her hands and against my new black backdrop it offered a nice synthesis.  Brook was standing at the back door and I was shooting from the garden so all the natural light was on her.  It was however sunny and that created some challenges with exposure and shadows.  I also shot some indoors to avoid the bright light. What do you think of the results? All images in this post have been edited by Alexander Fess.
